Dark Night of Desire lineup- this Saturday 4th May!

 Hello Voltarians!
Here is a taste teaser of the lineup for this Saturday nights Dark Night of Desire....

Performers for the 4th May!

Mia Riffraff!
A visual artist and signwriter by trade, Mia Riffraff's neo-burlesque routines aim for maximum visual impact with darkly alluring story lines. Let her whisk you away into a world of twisted fantasy where you may feel shocked and delighted, and experience a delicious guilty pleasure at her hands.
She has been performing regularly as a soloist at venues and events around Melbourne, as well as being a dancer in Sapphira’s professional troupe and teaching beginners burlesque classes for Sapphira's Showgirls.
She will be performing her acts 'Sinister Sister' and 'Die by the Dozen'




Miss Miller Rogue!
Miss Miller Rogue is a mild mannered biomedical scientist by day and a pole dance performer and instructor by night. A lab accident several months ago has left her with strange flame retardant properties which she now uses to perform her own brand of combination pole dancing, burlesque and fire eating while she figures out a way to use her powers to fight evil.
She will be performing her acts 'Intestinal Fireproofing' and 'I wish I was Salma Heyek'




Lady Kalypso!
Immortal. Classic beauty. Mediterranean goddess. New talent and an all round Lady. Lady Kalypso lures you in with a swish of her hips, a flash of her sequins and then watches in amusement as you succumb to her black magic ways.
Monthly resident at Dark Night of Desire, she will be performing her acts- Fever & Black Magic Lady!



And last but certainly not least, the fabulous MC- Sarah D will be our host for the evening!


Be there!

New happenings at Club Voltaire

Changes are afoot at Club Voltaire!


Last week, we went through the theatre and had a mini clear out of furniture. The pink couch is gone to a new home to make way for more audience seating. We rearranged things backstage, so there is lots of space backstage for the artists to use too. But that's not all- there's more things to come!

We had a delivery of a great little padded retro bar last Friday which we will be using to create a drinks service area upstairs just outside the theatre curtains. It is the first of many knick knacks and kooky bits and pieces making their new home amongst what is going to be a warm and welcoming foyer and bar area in the space that is now the Box office. 


Next up- painting!

UPCOMING SHOW ON APRIL 21st!

April 21st 2013

SUNDAY SHORTS

Cats. Rather than try and put on our regular show at the regular time of 7pm on April 21, and attempt to compete with the infamously boozy, famous-comedian stalking behemoth of an event that is the MICF AFTER-PARTY, we've decided to bring the show forward and get the party started early!

Doors will open at 3pm, where there'll be cheap drinks, good company, and buckets of "FLAMING BILLIOS" AKA the COCKTAIL DREAMS AND HANGOVERS ARE MADE OF.

Come 4pm we'll kick off the entertainment, our usual assortment of comedy and music, with a few surprises thrown in for good measure! It'll be an utter rampage of an afternoon, and the only place to be pre-MICF afterparty!

So would you rather be at home, sucking back a $10 bottle of wine because you're too poor to buy drinks at the afterparty? Or arrive at the afterparty sober?? WHAT? HOW WILL YOU SUMMON THE COURAGE TO HIT ON FELICITY WARD* Hell no!

Club Voltaire. BE THERE.

*INSERT COMEDIAN CRUSH HERE.
Club Voltaire is having a makeover!
Over the next month there will be many changes happening  to the interior of the Club as we do some revamping, and we look forward to telling you all about it via our social media and blogspot.

We have a new Stage Manager for our regular Saturday night show
- Dark Night of Desire, who will be shaking up the place and creating a new vibe. More details to come soon!

Lincoln Daw! The Next Superhero!



ON NOW AT CLUB VOLTAIRE!
For tickets, please visit TRYBOOKING.COM- click here to purchase

WHAT: The Next Superpower is a show about China from an outsider's perspective.
HOW: In 2008 Lincoln went to Beijing and taught for 12 months in a Beijing kindergarten. If Lincoln’s class of 25 aspirational 'mini-Maos' confirmed anything, it’s that China’s superpower status is imminent.

Material ranges from intrusive medical checks, the high esteem in which speakers of English are held, the death-defying morning commute and more. Alongside personal anecdotes Lincoln will put a humorous spin on China’s modern rise in the context of its history and culture. What can we expect from our future overlords? Come along to The Next Superpower and find out.

The Next Superpower was performed as part of the 2012 Melbourne Fringe Festival.

VENUE:
Club Voltaire
14 Raglan Street
North Melbourne
